Sandown Boccia Success!๐ดโช๐ต
Today, 12 Sandown children proudly represented our school at the Hastings Boccia competition!
Boccia is a precision ball sport where players aim to throw their balls closest to the white target ball (the jack). We played in teams of 3, each throwing 2 balls, over 2 ends to score points.
We entered 4 teams, and each team played 6 fixtures throughout the day. Confidence grew with every game and every Sandown team secured a win! ๐
Most importantly, the children showed fantastic teamwork, resilience, and pride in representing Sandown. ๐
And the cherry on topโฆ
๐ฅ One of our Sandown teams finished 1st out of 12 teams overall, taking home GOLD medals!๐ฅ
We are incredibly proud of all the children who took part today! ๐
